This is an I-Heart podcast.

Guaranteed Human.

And now, move the sticks with Daniel Jeremiah and Buckey Brooks.

Welcome to Move the Sticks, guys.

I am Bucky Brooks at my co-host.

Daniel Jeremiah would join me later as we have a great conversation with Drew Fabianich.

He is the Panini Senior Bowl Executive Director.

We're going to talk to him about one of the premier college football all-star games and the new

stuff that he's doing since taking over, how they're going to get down.

And so without further ado, let's listen to the conversation DJ and I had with Drew. Well, I'm still going to call him coach, Buck. You know, when somebody coaches you, you don't ever stop calling him coach. So I don't care if I'm 70 years old. He's still going to be coach Fabianz to me. Coach, how the heck are you doing? I'm good. It it always freaks me out because I haven't coached in 25 years now.

So it's strange. And people still do call me coach. And they still have players that call me coach still. I was like, come on. I haven't coached that one. Don't call me coach anymore. Yeah. For those, for those a little bit behind the scene. And so when you're when you're having guests on, a lot of times people within an organization and where coach is working as the senior executive director of the pinney super bowl they're going to send over hey like what kind of questions are you going to ask or you know what are the topics that you might hit and that's just the way it always goes when you have a guest on and i said that the number one topic i wanted to hit was who's his favorite quarterback that he's ever coach the college level. But I don't want to ask the question because I don't want the answer. He's a college level. Do you notice it? I should. I mean, I could go back to high school. I don't think I would have cracked the top 10 even on high school or any level that you've ever coached at. So I'm going to take a pass on that question.

But coach, give everybody an idea. You've signed on to this new role, but for those that aren't familiar with your path, just kind of give them the Cliff Notes version of your

football journey. Well, I'll kind of make it real condensed. I coached for 17 years,

coached every position, but offensive line, tight ends,

and running backs, coordinated both sides of the football. I was the youngest defensive

coordinator in Division I went history when I got the job back like in 90, but an 8 or 9

or whatever was. I was 29 years old. You know, then moved on to personnel

with the Cowboys for 18 years. 14 of that was served as, you know, the National Scout for them.

Then I went to Auburn as the general manager for football. And then I went to West Virginia

as the West Virginia, I mean, as the general manager for football. And then I went to West Virginia as the West Virginia.

I mean, there's the general manager football there too.

So a lot of years.
